Google today published AI in Science research led by economist Maria Codreanu, drawing on 15 million Gemini interactions, 2,600 specialized AI models, and a survey of 600 scientists to examine how AI is changing scientific research.
What makes it notable is the combination of large-scale real usage data with a structured survey of researchers — pairing behavioral evidence with attitudes, a rare systematic quantification of AI's role in science.
